This does NOT exit the application, it just kills its current process, and if the user is down in a couple activities, all this ends up doing is removing the top activity (because it went away without saving its state) and goes to the previous one. And if there are other things running in the process such as services, they will be started right back up.
Also, notice how NO standard applications in android have a quit command? This is not a standard part of the android UI model, and there is no need for it.
